After Azade rises from Abaddon and is made Rastlina’s Guardian of the Circle, she gains the ability to take on the forms of other plant-based creatures. In order to gain access to the plane of Ivalia, she adopts the form of a Cuirizu with her own personal touches.

In this form, Azade prefers the female aspect, and her body takes on the shade of green that is most typical of her magic’s manifestation. For her hair and the beds of red, I went with pomegranates as the inspiration. The tattoos are more based on Henna than they are tribal, making her appear to be more aligned with the Golden Sepal while in this form.

Becoming a Cuirizu

After becoming a Cuirizu, Azade is not technically bound to any order. Though she lacks the power of a true Primogen in this form, she could foster an Order of her own if she so chose. In the eyes of other Cuirizu who aren’t in on the trick, Azade appears as a rogue Cuirizu: one of the uncommon individuals who is never claimed by an order yet survives long enough to carve out a niche for themselves.

In this state, she has all the same powers and abilities as a regular Cuirizu, but what ends up taking time to get used to is the impulses. Cuirizu don’t just choose a life of decadence and stimulation; they are driven to it, and becoming one only for a short time does not leave Azade exempt!
